You will be staying in Guesthouse Olá Onda, run by a young Dutch surfers couple.

Olá Onda is a new and fresh guesthouse in Ericeira, Portugal. It is a place for surfers, beach-goers, culture-lovers, and pastéis de nata-enthusiasts, who like sea view rooms only 10 minutes walking from the beach and city.

Olá Onda Guesthouse is a typical Portuguese villa from the 80's which they completely renovated in 2017. The Portuguese roots are still visible in the tiles on the floor, the wooden windows, and the marble fireplace, but combined with a modern interior. They decorated each room with lots of love and attention. Their rooms are spacious, light, and provide plenty of privacy. All have a private five-star bathroom and a kingsize bed.

The villa is surrounded by a big garden with a 32-meter square swimming pool and several lounge areas. You can also read one of their surf books and relax on the couch. There’s a fridge filled with drinks that you can buy throughout the day.

20:00 Dinner out in Ericeira with group or individual for three evenings / vegetarian or vegan BBQ at Olá Onda for one evening

Instructors

Ricky Florack

Wanting to pass on her insights and to truly help athletes succeed, one day Ricky Florack chose to become a hard-working professional in her field. Her goal was, and still, to consistently does some extra rounds, but on the yoga mat. This is how her Yoga for Martial Arts and Combat Sports coaching program started to take shape. Her combined experience as a yogini, yoga instructor, martial arts student, and anatomy-nerd continues to give her more and more valuable knowledge that she wants to share with her students.

Location

This holiday will take place in Ericeira, Portugal. It is a surfers village half an hour north of Lisbon, and while it is gaining popularity, it still has an authentic laid-back vibe to it. It is an ideal place to stroll around, to try local food, to enjoy the surrounding landscape, and to visit one of the many beaches.
